Carved

– CARVED –

Long enough,
I held the key
To my freedom.

It’s all in my head
But hidden beneath
My fears and will.

All I needed
Was to see it
And carve it out.

With trembling hands
I sought the courage
To break the chains
And set me free,
To be the person
I longed to be.

With every step, I traced
And the path grew clear,
And soon my doubts
Began to disappear.

And in that moment,
It was not too late.

So now I walk
With head held high,
No longer held
By fear and lie.

For I have found
The power within,
And with this key,
My new life begins.
